Salmonella methodology update.

This paper reviews the numerous research studies carried out at Richard Russell Agricultural Research Center over the past 10 to 15 yr that ultimately led to the Center's present methods for the isolation of Salmonella from processed broiler carcasses and poultry feed. In addition, the newer technologies that have recently evolved are discussed in complete detail. Included in these discussions are the advantages and disadvantages of the various technologies along with recommendations for making them more useful to the practicing food or poultry microbiologist.
